On Track Lyrics – Tame Impala

[Verse 1]
I close my front door and turn on the light
I let out a breath and hold in a sigh
Ain't nothing new, ain't that much in sight
And if I'm counting days
Dream fruition ain't what it's looking like

[Chorus]
But strictly speaking
I'm still on track
Strictly speaking
I'm holding on
More than a minor setback
But strictly speaking
I'm still on track
And all of my dreams are still in sight
'Cause strictly speaking
I've got my whole life
I lost a wheel a while back
But strictly speaking
I'm still on track
Challenges falling in my lap
Strung out again
But still on track

[Verse 2]
I know it's unrealistic
Over-optimistic
I know I tried before this
I know it's nearly August
I know I can't ignore this
Looking forward to all this
Saying, "Babe, I just adore this" and
"Babe, can we afford this?"
I know it's been a slow year
Nothing much to show here
I didn't really go for it
So not a lot to show for it

[Refrain]
The hardest part is over
Adjusting makes it slower
So glad you're coming over
A wall to bring us closer
The world ain't waiting for ya
Nothing to lose it over
We're just a little older
The rest comes easy
The rest comes easy

[Chorus]
('Cause life's like that)
But strictly speaking
I'm still on track
Strictly speaking
I'm holding back
Troubles keep falling in my lap
Yeah, but strictly speaking
I'm still on track
So tell everyone I'll be alright
'Cause strictly speaking
I've got my whole life
More than one major setback
But strictly speaking
I'm still on track (Yeah)

[Refrain]
The hardest part is over
Adjusting makes it slower (Oh)
So glad you're coming over
A wall to bring us closer
(Still on track, motherf**ker)
The world ain't waiting for ya
Nothing to lose it over
We're just a little older
The rest gets easy
The rest gets easy
